Rubin Peacock Artist Archives (VA-08), 1945/2021

1.5 Linear Feet 6 boxes; 11 folders; 1,238 items
Abstract Or Scope
This collection documents the life and artwork of Rubin Peacock (1941-), a Richmond-based sculptor. For over fifty years, Rubin has dedicated his career to experimenting with bronze sculptures, taking inspiration from nature, ancient civilizations, and his Catawba Indian ancestry. His work has challenged popular art trends as many sculptors chose to utilize other materials in their work, making him one of few Virginia artists to use bronze. In addition to a diverse array of photographic materials documenting Rubin's art production, processes, and completed pieces, this collection contains correspondence and publications detailing commissions, supply shipments, and patina formulas, providing an in-depth overview of Rubin's art career.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
